Expertise: I never know what to write in these things, but since I'm updating everything anyway, I suppose I should also update this. I'm 21, a senior art student at JBU in Arkansas, a photography intern for a modeling company in New York, and completely in love with a wonderful girl, Amber Bradley. That's all I've got.

| Wow, nothing what I expected yesterday at work. I showed up and an office was ready for me, with a new computer, and anything I would need. A new Canon 5D camera waiting for me for the summer, and the company credit card to go buy myself whatever else I would need for my studio. The company is pretty small, only about 11 people, but the amount of work they do is incredible, and I can deffinitly tell how much I'm going to have to bust my butt to keep up. I did a shoot yesterday for Kjarkhi clothing, a small company out here, and today I do a mannequin shoot for polo. All of this stuff is catalog shooting, or wholesale presentation, so I'm excited to see my work starting to surface nationwide. Anyway, here I am, up again at 7:00 am, that's 5 where I'm from, getting ready for my hour commute into the city, for another full day of work. The good news is, if this is as bad as it gets, I'm doing pretty good. | | |
| It's been a lazy day in Hoboken. A steady drizzle has kept me perfectly comfortable in my apartment. One of my roomate, Mike, works for CBS and was able to get a dvd of all the pilot shows for next season that havn't come out yet, so I watched several of them and caught up on a little sleep while trying to get over a slight headache this morning. Dave is sitting on the couch playing guitarr, and between the rain, and the accoustic seranade I'm getting, it's hard to stay awake. Work starts tomorrow morning, and I suppose reality will sink in sometime this week. Dave will be leaving for most of the week, so I'm on my own, and though I've made a few friends already, it's definitly going to be a lonely week, and busy week. Amber and I are doing well, as if we could do otherwise... sometimes it seems that we are stronger than the world, which gives me hope that the distance will not get to us, but a lot of phone talk, and prayer seems to be keeping us strong. I think God knows worn out I am with dead end things, so I'm praying this will be different. No pictures yet, I havn't had the chance to go in the city with my camera, and I should probably put stuff up on here soon, but we'll see this week if that can happen. I have a casting with a modeling company on tuesday night, so we'll see what that brings with it, and Abercrombie out here is giving me a pretty good offer to work some weekends with them, so depending on my work load I may pick up some more hours. Basically, I'm having a good time. | | |
| Wow.. I'm here.. No really, I'm in New York city right now, in my apartment. I just walked about 6 blocks to take my car to a parking garage, that costs more monthly than my house in Siloam, but hey, they bring me the car when I want it. I havn't gotten to explore much yet, last night was a blur, my 21st birthday came after 31 hours in the car, and although tired, I found room in my stomach for a few new and now legal things. My apartment is amazing, I can't believe how big it is, and it basically begs for parties. Chris is still asleap on the couch, I think the drive wore him out more than me, which is wild since he never touched the wheel. Anyway here I am, living in a row house apartment, overlooking the Hudson river, the whole Manhattan skyline, and awekwardly finding myself feeling comfortable. Chris leaves tomorrow, which is I suppose when reality will set in, and without Amber here, I'm sure I'll be lonley quite a bit at first, but once work picks up, I am hoping that the summer moves by at a quick pace, putting me in a career, a little money in my pocket, and on my way back to a warm set of arms. Hope all is well with everybody....

| I suppose it has been to long since I have been on here, far too long for this site to realistically still exist, and yet as the beginning of another summer finds me, i remember how much fun I had last year building and molding this site, not only as a way to keep my friends updated on my life, but as a way to organize my thoughts into some form of sanity, and express the mass of confussion in my head. It is, then only fair to once again, build on this site, as I start a new summer, and though much has changed in my life, I keep all my old posts up, so that I can remember the highs and lows of this last year, and prepare myself for another stressfull, although entirely different summer. There is first of all a somewhat new addition to my life. After spending quite a few months single, trying to collect myself, and find God's will for me both in relationship, and in life, I find myself now a few months into a new relationship, with a close friend of over two years, and though I maintain God as my strength for both of us, I fondly find myself falling quickly. Below are several pics of us at both spring break in Winterpark Co, a little get away while we spent some time digging into eachother's hearts, and Easter wish her family.
Much more is going on however. On tuesday, may 16th, I will be starting a long drive up to New York City, where I will be living the rest of the summer. I got a job with In Record Time, www.inrecordtime.com a design company as a modeling/studio photographer. I'm pretty excited to see what I will learn, and am praying that God would show me this sumemr if the last three years that I have devoted towards this very goal were exactly what He had planned for me. I intend to continue to update this somewhat regularly with pictures form New York, news on my job, and my relationship with Amber, and well as tid bits of my life outside of those two predominate aspects of my life right now. Thanks for checking back in... | | |
